Quake Live Price

Hello,
why is Quake Live so expensive? I already bought once a 1 Year Premium, and now i want to go PRO because wanna play again with some friends, but then the game costed already 70usd, i mean cant i JUST BUY the game and i have it forever? Like a normal Game, the good old Quake 3. This costs hundrets of dollars just to pla yit for a longer time.... I mean the game is from late 90s and costs mor then any other game.

When can we get prices that actually would fit for this game?

Pleas elet me know i wanna buy it... but not going to buy another 50usd for a year and the year after another 50usd ***! totally rip off, you cant even pay per month subscription like normal games do. This so f*cked up... If i pay so much then it should not be a subcription.

Added support to show information for multiple subscriptions applied to one account.

Simply because you don't pay for the software as you get it, like with Q3. You pay for the development and the servers. A normal Q3 player had only the game to pay, indeed, but the hosts had to pay hundreds of dollars for their servers to allow you to play online. With QL, that cost is distributed on all subscribers.
